Votes at a glance: Taylor ISD board approves consent agenda, flexible school‑day waivers, program manager pre‑bond services and contract renewals
Summary
Taylor ISD trustees approved the consent agenda and several programmatic and administrative items; all recorded motions passed 6–0 with one trustee absent.
At Monday’s Taylor ISD Board of Trustees meeting the board approved a series of motions covering routine and programmatic matters. All recorded motions that reached a vote carried with a 6–0 tally; one trustee was recorded absent for the votes.
Key outcomes:
- Consent agenda (minutes, tax report, monthly financial report, quarterly investment report, purchasing approvals, budget amendment, policy update, depository contract extension): Motion to approve carried 6–0, 1 absent. The motion was moved and seconded on the record.
- Optional Flexible School Day Program applications (Achievement and Legacy Early College High School): The board approved the district’s applications to offer optional flexible school day waivers. Staff explained the programs allow attendance to be recorded by minutes (240 minutes equates to one day) and provide scheduling flexibility to retain students with work or other obligations. The board voted to approve; motion carried 6–0, 1 absent.
- Program manager pre‑bond services (Project Control): The board approved selecting Project Control for pre‑bond program manager services and authorized the superintendent to negotiate and execute an agreement for pre‑bond services in the amount presented ($118,000). If a bond passes, the pre‑bond fee would be credited against Project Control’s later program‑management fee. Motion carried 6–0, 1 absent.
- Resolutions to reimburse general‑fund expenditures from future voter‑approved bond proceeds: The board approved two resolutions to permit future bond funds to reimburse certain pre‑bond expenditures (Project Control pre‑bond services and Pflueger Architects pre‑bond work). Motion carried 6–0, 1 absent.
- Food service management contract amendment (Sodexo): The board approved a third amendment to the five‑year Sodexo contract to update dates for the 2025–26 school year; staff noted rate adjustments tied to the consumer price index and that the guaranteed return ($40,000) remains unchanged. Motion carried 6–0, 1 absent.
- Personnel items (resignations, elections, renewals, district‑of‑innovation contracts): The board approved personnel resignations, elections and contract renewal/nonrenewal actions as presented. Motions carried 6–0, 1 absent.
